January 29, 2020 —Fjallsárlón Glacial Lake, Iceland
A sole iceberg puppy floating on the near mirror surface of this lake at the south end of the glacier Vatnajökull. Pretty small for an iceberg but pretty big for a pup. About the size of a Saint Bernard and I’m sure a lot heavier.
(Nikon D850, Tamron 100–400mm f/4.5–6.3 Di VC USD. RAW processing in DxO PhotoLab 3.1; Editing in Adobe Photoshop.)

Iceberg puppy? I love the thought and adore the image. Normally I enjoy having a puppy snuggling at my feet, but maybe not this one. 🙂

The lake itself, it didn’t freeze,
But you employed the Rule of Threes.

Crop was forced by distracting background,
This was my workaround.

Icebergs calve so why not start out as a pup? The light on the little berg is beautiful as is your handling of it. The long soft exposure of the water is just right so the ice pup stand out to be admired. Woof!

I love how the light enters the image on the left and gently pets the puppy.

I like the way you see this, the way you processed it. I have to say, I’ve seen photos of ice “pups” from Iceland before, but you manage to do it differently. 🙂

Thank you very much. When I looked across the water the pup jumped right out at me. Nobody else saw it that way. But then again, I’m sort of…
